Under their curious stares, she proceeded gracefully toward the hall.

Pollock Alvarez, the party’s host, stood near the red carpet and greeted her with surprise.

“Madam, I didn’t expect your presence at tonight’s event.

I’m delighted.

“Good evening, Mr.

Alvarez.

The venue looks splendid.

It would have been a missed opportunity not to attend.

They exchanged pleasantries, and a few minutes later, the party officially commenced.

After some opening remarks, Pollock began to introduce his company’s latest projects to the esteemed guests in attendance.

With warm applause, he concluded his speech.

The guests began to form small clusters and engaged in conversations.

Lucinda surveyed the room and her gaze ultimately rested on a striking man with blond hair.

He was remarkably handsome, looked beyond thirty years, sported a well-maintained beard and had a pointed nose.

This gentleman happened to be the current CEO of DoWeier Group, Ellsworth Nguyen.

Also, his social standing was illustrious.

He was of noble heritage and held the title of the prince of Aldoria and the prospective king.

If Lucinda could establish a partnership with him, he could facilitate the expansion of her company to greater heights.

Lucinda plucked a glass of wine from a passing waiter’s tray and strolled leisurely toward Ellsworth.

“Mr.

Nguyen,” she addressed him with a soft, pleasant tone.

Her face was graced with a warm and friendly smile.

Ellsworth paused his conversation with the man before him.

He had noticed her entrance and was taken aback by her presence.

He admired women of her beauty, charisma, and exceptional abilities.

What truly captured him was the kindness radiating from her smile, making her impossible to ignore.

“How may I address you, miss?” Ellsworth responded in a calm but resolute voice.

Lucinda smiled and replied, “I’m Lucinda Simmons.

“Delighted to meet you, Miss Simmons,” he said, his surprise evident.

“You are quite stunning.

She responded with a gracious smile.

They started talking, beginning with their everyday lives and gradually delved into philosophical discussions.

They clicked immediately.

As their conversation unfolded, Ellsworth found himself drawn to her more and more.
